Abstract

The steam temperature during the extraction process has a great influence on the essential oil quality. .This study was conducted to analyze the compound of kaffir-lime oil during extracting at different steam temperature using GC-MS analysis. The extraction was carried out by using steam distillation based on induction heating system at different extraction temperature such as 90⁰C, 95⁰C and 100⁰C, the power of the induction heating system is fixed at 1.6kW. Increment of the steam temperature will increase the oil yield. In terms of oil composition, extraction at lower temperature resulted high concentration for four marker compounds of kaffir-lime oil which are α-pinene, sabinene, limonene, β-pinene.

 

Keywords: Kaffir-lime oil, GC-MS analysis, and steam distillation-based induction heating system
